MARIGOLDS ( Continued) 
MISSION GIANTS 
A new class of Marigolds of medium height with giant Chrysanthemum 
blooms. Plants grow about 18 inches high with a good amount of 
vigor, having a base branching habit producing 8 to 12 stems of 
excellent cutting length. An early blooming class about 2 weeks 
earlier than the African type. Blooms 4 to 5 inches in diameter form¬ 
ing an almost perfect ball. They remind one of an incurved type of 
Chrysanthemum. A real addition to the Marigold family.

MEXICAN SEMI-DWARF 
Harvest Gold. Due to their more branching and floriferous habit, and 
their bearing practically 100% doubles, we have the new Mexican 
"Harvest Gold." The plants are 114 to 2 feet high, and bloom from 
July onward, bearing 20-25 elegant blooms of a bright golden orange 
color. Very desirable.

BURPEE RED AND GOLD HYBRIDS 
A cross between African and French Marigolds. These are the earliest 
of all Marigolds. Will flower in less than eight weeks from seed. The 
color varies with the season and the growth of the plants. At times it 
becomes pure yellow and at other times a bright rich mahogany red. 
The flowers are nearly three times the size of the largest French 
Double. They grow 114 ft. tall, 2 ft. wide and are literally covered 
with flowers at all times. Tr. Pkt.. . 35c 14 oz.. . $1.25 Oz.. .$4.00
